Mar 26,2018
Our Haoyu company has implemented the "amoeba" business management model since September last year. Each department uses its own capabilities to maximize cost savings and reduce unnecessary waste. We conduct cost accounting at the end of each month to distribute the saved funds to us in a corresponding proportion. In addition to our salary, each of us also received a cost-saving bonus every month. It has greatly improved our work enthusiasm. Every employee does his best to think about how to save costs and reduce waste after work, which fully reflects the value of everyone.
Amoeba management is a full-participation management model. Each employee must fully grasp his work goals, make unremitting efforts to achieve the goals in his position, and realize his self-worth. Each of our workshops has made various boards, including waste boards, power usage boards, etc. These boards are updated statistically every day according to the production situation of the previous day, so that everyone in the workshop can see the fruits of their labor at any time. This is the core of "amoeba" management. Each employee in the workshop is centered on the team, each team takes the workshop as the core, and the workshop formulates corresponding goals and plans. Each team formulates the goal plan of its own team management plan. Each machine then formulates its own cost-saving plan, and relies on the joint efforts of all members to complete the goal, allowing each of us to participate in it like a gear. Therefore, amoeba management is an all-hands-on management system. Each employee must fully grasp the goals of the amoeba organization to which he belongs, and find ways to come up with ideas to achieve the goals in their respective positions. The golden idea innovation plan that the workshop has been promoting has also greatly improved the work enthusiasm of front-line employees. As long as the ideas put forward improve and enhance safety, quality, production efficiency, working environment, etc., the workshop will give certain rewards according to the specific situation. From the beginning of the week, one or two items could not be mentioned to as many as ten items per week now, employees have opened their minds and put forward many ideas that are beneficial to the work of the workshop, which not only creates benefits for the company but also benefits for employees. A manifestation of self-worth. The company announces the value created by each team on a monthly basis, and distributes the profits to the corresponding personnel in proportion. With the continuous deepening of the amoeba management model, from employees to managers now regard work as their own family affairs, and work can only be achieved if they are attentive. For example, steel wire scraps in our workshop. In the past, employees were unqualified when they were working. They cut it off at random and it was wasted. Now each steel wire must be measured several times to ensure that one millimeter of steel wire material cannot be wasted. Employees used to use brushes or oil bottles casually when using gasoline. Now they dip a brush in gasoline and slowly shake the brush into the gasoline pot to ensure that the gasoline does not drip and use it casually. In order to ensure work safety, employees have also tried their best. When the original safety protection facilities of the equipment are guaranteed to be correct, a lot of safety protection facilities have been added according to the suggestions of employees and the joint research of workshop equipment personnel, so that employees can have accidents at work. When the equipment has automatic protection measures to avoid harming the staff, including some angular places of the equipment, it is wrapped with corresponding materials to avoid employees not paying attention to bumping their heads. Small details reflect the work mentality of employees and managers. Small improvements can create unlimited value. Savings start from bit by bit, and benefits are created from details.
Inamori Kazuo said: "Business operation is nothing more than a question of how to increase sales and reduce expenses, it is not complicated at all." With our company's excellent product quality and experienced sales team, there must be no problem with sales, the focus is how to reduce expenses and reduce costs, so as a production department, the only thing we have to do is to try our best to reduce costs.
As long as you understand the principle of "minimum cost for maximum sales", every employee can learn to operate. In our daily production, everyone saves every kilowatt-hour of electricity and every bit of waste. The equipment used in the workshop has been modified from the previous equipment lighting and electric kettle switches connected to the equipment switches to separate switches, so that the lights go out and the electric kettle is turned off, saving electricity. Everyone saves costs and reduces waste.
In fact, every employee in the company returns home to play the role of a good operator. As long as they can do this, they already have the talents required to be an operator. It is through proactive authorization that Mr. Inamori guides employees to use this ability in the operation of the company. In fact, this is Amoeba management.
Therefore, we earnestly study and think about the business philosophy advocated by Kazuo Inamori, and we must combine our own work reality. At the same time, as Kazuo Inamori advocates, the development of the company should focus on the interests and development of every employee. The development of our company has begun to take shape today, and it is necessary for every employee of the company to become the real owner of the company. The company should learn from Mr. Inamori and create wealth, value and happiness for the real owner of the company, and truly achieve a win-win situation for individual employees and the company.
